Hi

I am trying to send xml via http post to a secure site.

I tested the site and I got connection failure, checked my code, everything looks great.

Then I find out the site the post goes to has an expired certificate.

So I conclude that that must be why I cant make a connection.

The strange thing is using asp, a successful connection goes through.

Can anyone please explain this to me.

Many thanks
 
why bother? look at the live docs comments for cfhttp. There are a few links to look into when using cfhttp with SSL. It also mentions that an expired cert or a "Self sign" cert will not work. ASP most likely works because its a security hole, my bet is CF is working properly.
